Jordin Sparks, Michael Xavier to Star in Hallmark Channel Movie A Christmas Treasure (TV News Roundup)

Jordin Sparks will star in the all-new original Hallmark Channel movie, “A Christmas Treasure,” alongside Michael Xavier.

The film, premiering as part of the network’s “Countdown to Christmas” programming event, follows writer Lou (Sparks) after she opens a 100-year-old time capsule and finds her grandfather’s journal, causing her to question whether she should move to New York after Christmas to further her career or stay in Pine Grove to carry on her family’s local newspaper. When she meets charming chef Kyle (Xavier), who is also at a crossroads, the pair develop a magical connection during the holiday season, helping each of their journeys.

In the movie, the “American Idol” winner delivers her own renditions of two classic Christmas songs, “This Christmas” and “Oh Holy Night.” Sparks’ original song “Oh, It’s Christmas,” from her album “Cider & Hennessy,” will also be featured in the film.

Executive produced by Sparks, Stephanie Germain, Harvey Kahn and Allen Lewis, “A Christmas Treasure” is from Christmas Treasure Road Productions Ltd. Charles Cooper serves as producer, and Michael Robison directs from a story by Jen Notas Shapiro and teleplay by Sandra Berg & Judith Berg. The music is by Sean William.
